Monza will be bidding to continue their fine form in Serie A on Sunday, as they travel to Torino. Both sides are locked in the middle of the Italian standings, with very little left to play for this season, which could make it an entertaining game for the neutral.
Serie A Preview
It has been a fine season in Serie A for Monza, as they appear on course for their best-ever finish in the top-flight. They currently sit tenth in the overall standings, but they could climb up to eighth in the standings this weekend. However, their run of form has come a little too late in the campaign for a European push, as they are currently 13 points off the top six with just five rounds of matches remaining.
Still, Monza comes into this fixture in fine recent form, as they have won three of their previous four matches. They are also unbeaten in their last five in Serie A. Monza wasn’t able to record a fourth straight win in midweek, as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Champions League-chasing Roma.
Torino will have the home advantage this weekend, as they also look to move up to eighth in the standings. However, Torino doesn’t boast the same kind of form as Monza, as they have lost two of their previous five, and they have landed just two victories over the same period.
But, they do come into this home match after a recent victory in Serie A. That victory was picked up on the road against Sampdoria on Wednesday evening. Alessandro Buongiomo opened the scoring after 31 minutes, before the points were assured following Pietro Pellegri’s effort in the fourth minute of injury time.
Torino vs Monza Head to Head
This will only be the second clash between these two Italian clubs in the past 20 years. The first meeting came earlier this season, with Torino coming out on top with a 2-1 victory on the road. However, this promises to be as exciting as that first clash was.
Torino vs Monza Prediction
These sides both have very little to play for over the final weeks of the season, and for that reason, we could see over 2.5 goals being scored. But, we find it challenging to overlook the form Monza has been in over recent weeks when it comes to the match winner.
